Airway management is an essential component of the emergency medicine skill set. Management of the difficult airway may include airway adjuncts, including variants of laryngoscopic blades, supraglottic devices, stylets, and video laryngoscopy. These various airway adjuncts have certain advantages and disadvantages, and factors to be considered include ...

Combined airways: impact of upper airway on lower airway
Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head & Neck Surgery, 2010This article reviews recent literature on the important relationship between the nose, paranasal sinuses and lungs. Recent advances in the understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the association between upper and lower airways are discussed.Epidemiological, clinical, and immunopathological data demonstrate an important link ...

Chest, 2003
Airway hyperresponsiveness is a characteristic feature of asthma and consists of an increased sensitivity of the airways to an inhaled constrictor agonist, a steeper slope of the dose-response curve, and a greater maximal response to the agonist. Measurements of airway responsiveness are useful in making a diagnosis of asthma, particularly in patients ...

Respiration Physiology, 2001
There are many types of afferent receptor in the airways; at least five in the larynx: pressure, drive, cold, irritant and C-fibre; and at least four in the trachea and bronchi: slowly and rapidly adapting stretch receptors (SARs and RARs), C-fibre receptors, and those in neuroepithelial bodies (NEBs). Histologically enough sensory structures have been

Airway surface liquid (ASL), a mixture of periciliary fluid and submucosal gland secretions, was collected from the ferret isolated trachea in vitro. The trachea was closed, without possibility of evaporation. The collected ASL was hyperosmolar (310-350 mosmol.kg-1) compared with Krebs-Henseleit solution (280 mosmol.kg-1).

Traumatic airway injuries fortunately are rare. While sometimes injuries are obvious and initial management straightforward, frequently the diagnosis is difficult. Prompt diagnosis of airway injuries requires a high index of clinical suspicion, complemented by judicious use of endoscopy and radiological imaging. Initial management can be complicated by

The approach to airway management in the multiple trauma patient has changed significantly over the past decade. A number of central controversies have been identified, and the debates continue. This article identifies the major controversies in trauma airway management, reviews and summarizes relevant literature, and presents specific recommendations ...

A mechanosensory unit is a functional unit that contains multiple receptors (or encoders) with different characteristics, including rapidly adapting receptors, slowly adapting receptors, and deflation-activated-receptors. Each is capable of sensing different aspects of lung mechanics. The sensory unit is both a transducer and a processor.
